Here is the breakdown of the beacon and its various components.

The beacon was originally wired to burn steady, and a button flasher was added some time later. It was also originally bolted through the back to the bridge center support. For display in the collection I placed leg supports in the front, and due to limited space, the rear "legs" are elbowed to the wall.

Fuse block. (Both hot and neutral leads fused.)
Down light reflector, housing and lens.
Down light installed. Hinged door with chain.
Door held closed by spring loaded twist latch.
Beacon reflector installed.
cork gasket for beacon lens.
